I get the following error repeatedly: Sep 20 00:00:59 localhost nntpd[4929]: spawn: /usr/lib/newsbin/inject/inews exit status 1 Most of the articles in question are coming from a forwarded mailing list. The program that does the forwarding has two options -- exit status 0 or exit status 75, which is a TEMPFAIL for sendmail. Another thing I noticed were a lot of duplicate articles from local machines. What I think might be happening is that the program is trying to send the mail message to the newsgroup a second time, and since inews doesn't come back with a sucessful completion it assumes it's just a tempfail and requeues it when it's reall a duplicate and should be discarded. Do you think that this is the case? Do you have any suggestions? -Mike.
